Note on p. 20. "The statue of Sebekhotep III at Arqo in Nubia is con-<br />

sidered by Prof. Breasted to have been carried there in later times. If this<br />

supposition be true (for which there is no evidence at present) it does not<br />

affect the argument on p. 20, as the name of Sebekhotep III is also found<br />

at Gebelcyn and at Karnak, as well as his statues at Tanis. Hence it is<br />

evident that he reigned over all Egypt, irrespective of the original position<br />

of his statue in Nubia."
